I got the machine, was full of dielectric power. normal I guess.
I put the 6-50p on it.
Switched the switch on the back to 230.
Plugged it in, and nothing happens.
I talked to the seller, I trust him.
That's beside the point.

So,
The only thing left is that the plug is wired correctly?????
Is it???
Looks right to me, I've wired up about ten machines the same way.
Still running.
Green is the top(ground) and black and white can go to either of the bottom ones,
Am I right???

I'd check with an ohmmeter while it is unplugged. Black and red would be the standard Hot conductors. Black and white for 120 Volt configuration. This is not true with my new Dynasty with "Auto Line". These machines use red only for 3 phase. Sorry I don't understand either.

This machine had the plug on it you see in the eBay link.
It had three wires.
No red one.
I'm sure I wired the right plug to the right terminal.
I don'y understand it.
I'll get you some better pics of the wiring in the morning.

I can't read the nameplate. Will it configure to 240 Volt single phase? Might it be possible to download a manual? I wonder if the way it is linked for 480 it won't recognize 240 as useable power supply. Most machines have connection diagrams on or in the supply enclosure.
